I'm just wondering: why are you posting these to Fark? We already know what Fark says about these things. We're the people you're quoting.

I get that this is trying to promote Fark elsewhere, and I guess it's fine for what it is. (That last comment was way too long to be zippy.) But why are we seeing it? It's like having Starbucks make you watch Starbucks commercials while you wait for your Starbucks.

Mark my words...soon there will be a WTFark vid about...a WTFark thread.

\remembers when Fark threads were on average at least 100 responses long\\seems most can barely hit 20-30\\\wonder if there's a decline in the TotalFark population?

I'd say it has more to do with the fact that there's so much trolling, and not enough witty or informative posters any more. The thread about the kid who tried to commit suicide is a good example of trolling that is just not, in my honest opinion, conducive to good discussion.

I've made a few comments recently and have had people take them out of context in an effort to start a flame war. I've noticed some Farkers saying they have over a hundred people on their ignore list.

I'm only going to speak for myself here, but it's just not worth posting any more if a few people are going to turn things into a flame war. It's too frustrating and my time would be better spent elsewhere.
